Maybe this has been covered previously but here goes take 5 of Jumpin' Punkins from the Buell Neidlinger/Cecil Taylor Jan 61 candid session was omitted from the Mosaic set (only included takes 4 & 6) Take 5 has been included on the Candid CD Cell Walk For Celeste (9034) was it an oversight on MC's part or is really a different take I've listened to all three takes (have the Mosaic set & downloaded "tk 5" from Itunes) - all 3 takes sound different Any comments?

Trunk records (bless em) have just released a pair of obscure/early Airborne EP's on CD - recorded in the early 60's One is a very rare Garrick/Keane quartet EP (A Case of Jazz) - according to the liner notes, only 99 were pressed The other is a previously unreleased Airborne Acetate EP (personal copy of MG) of Shake Keane with the Hasting Girls choir & Gordon Langford Orchestra Listening to it now - the unreleased EP is quite eclectic/exotic (no wonder Johnny Trunk gravitated to this) - contains an interesting Bossa Nova track What a pity Joe Harriott wasn't on the released EP, still its great early 60's modern jazz

yes to Waldron & WSQ plus Abrams, Hemphill

Have just found the short dance film made by Fred Baker in the summer of '62 - "On The Sound" The soundtrack was produced by Gigi Gryce & his Orch-tette & the three dancers came from the Martha Graham Troupe It won a few awards at film festivals Hard to imagine it was made almost 50 years ago

I've just finished reading "rat race blues" & listening to the recent uptown GG CD. Repeated themes of sadness & frustration abound but also very uplifting (just like Kelly's recent Monk tome) Interesting to see that the Mercury "Reminiscin" sessions (including 2 unreleased titles) have never been released on CD (not even Japan). I think this would be a great potential Mosaic "single" release (or even stretch it out, with other sessions, to a Mosaic select) Anyone agree? going through a Gigi Gryce phase at present

A new batch of these twofers is slated for release at the end of this month 15 more are already listed on the Grooves-Inc site Some mouth watering stuff here (I think very little has had previous CD release, except maybe in japan) I quickly jotted these down so don't have the LP names Sonny Criss John Handy Blue Mitchell Sonny Stitt Keith Jarrett Mel Brown Howard Roberts Marion Brown Oliver Nelson/Hank Jones Charles Mingus Alice Coltrane Freddie Hubbard Clark Terry Michael White Chico Hamilton

semi annual "rumors of jazz" sale

Picked up three in the last month (Stitt, Kelly & DeFranco)via Amazon & this site - all in great condition & very reasonable prices (most under $10) Don't think they were played much as the discs had virtually no scuffing There seem to be more VE's on the market these days & at lower prices (have a number of these on my Amazon Wish List & check daily) I use CD inner cellophane/plastic sleeves (like small LP inner sleeves)to protect discs that are housed in these situations (tight digipaks) - works very well - they come in packs of 50 (japanese origin but sourced from the US) Luckily I bought quite a few of these in the early 2000's when they were on sale here in Brisbane - think they were selling them for $4 (Aus) a piece

Can anyone confirm if there are two takes each of Elysee(s) & Hilo The Lord Discography lists two for each title Elysee tks B (78 vers) & ? (LP vers) Hilo tks C (78 vers) & ? (LP vers) other discographies don't make the distinction I have the titles (1 tk each) on the Rollins Prestige 7CD box (don't have any other versions for comparison ie OJC CD "Trombone By Three" or LP's) Lord lists the LP versions on the OJC CD (the 7 CD set is not mentioned) while the 78 versions are on the Proper Intro set (2069).

Braxton, Elvin Jones, Ted Curson & George Coleman Newport 76

I tend to download the MP3 files & load them into iTunes For FLAC files (better quality) - you need a FLAC player (won't work in iTunes) -

Looks like Set #5 is being released on September 20 can't find any individual album listings methinks this is an error - that's the same date of release as Vol. 4 A few sites have this release listed as Vol. 5!! this is getting confusing check the MTV site http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/coltrane_john/albums.jhtml?albumId=2740715 it shows Vols 4 & 5 (different covers) but both being released on Nov 1 So, is there a Vol. 5 in the wings??

What prompted my initial interest was the cover to Double or Nothin' - In small print was Liberty Lighthouse Series, Vol. 1 then recently I found an image of the cover to Drummin' the Blues & again in smaller print, Vol. 3...... Check this site - page from Billboard discussing the new deal between Rumsey & Liberty http://books.google.com.au/books?id=KiAEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA48&lpg=PA48&dq=liberty+lighthouse+series+jazz+records&source=bl&ots=OsPsD8a6yO&sig=8VKY81fbuyRJBupuOGKizldyo48&hl=en&ei=rwZNTvjcDOjhiAKH28l3&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CBsQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=liberty%20lighthouse%20series%20jazz%20records&f=false Maybe the only to find out is to search relevant Liberty covers

Alyn Shipton's 'Jazz Library' now archived
romualdo replied to A Lark Ascending's topic in Jazz Radio & Podcasts
Don't you think they would have made an exception for the "colonies" -
In the late 50's (and beyond?) Howard Rumsey & Liberty were involved in releasing a series of LP's I know of 2 Vol. 1 - Lighthouse All Stars - Double Or Nothin' (recently released as Japanese TOCJ CD) Vol. 3 - Lighthouse All Stars - Drummin' The Blues (On Lonehill Jazz CD Jazz Structures) Anyone know how many were released in this series

wow - thanks for the link : I've never seen any footage of that show with FZ, only stills
-
what a coincidence - just been listening to "A Loose Kite .... " today & would you believe it or not the 40th anniversary "Wake of Poseidon" last week (slowly upgrading my KC vinyl - the 40th anniversary efforts are amazing, especially the DVD's) I have never understood the mixed & generally poor ratings attributed to these jazzier Crimso efforts (Lizard, Islands, Poseidon) - they contain a stellar cast of British Jazz musicians. Critics claim Islands has no cohesion but I totally disagree - it flows beautifully for me!

If this topic has already been covered elsewhere, maybe someone could merge this Wolfgang's Vault recently released (VOA recording?) the TM Lincoln Center Newport concert as a download (FLAC or MP3) I have the RLR (Spanish) double CD containing the concert but there appear to be marked (on some titles) timing differences between the two the WV timings generally are longer than the RLR CD - is the extra material just applause etc? Anyone have both of these & compared. I'm wondering what the source material for the RLR CD is (radio broadcast?)
-
that's great - with the VAT removed & free shipping to Australia it'll cost $22-23 Aus
-
totally agree - that footage is magic - as far as I can recall there is no audio for that section (havn't watched it for a while)

My treasure trove of CD's (17) reached Australian shores yesterday All in beautiful condition A pleasure dealing with you Eric
